super curious about the inspirations behind the Senator and Mary, if you'd like to share

Dang I love this question. Well, once you see it, you'll never unsee. :)

The Senator was inspired by The Batter (OFF), Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing (Hellsing) and Mathis Quigley (Unsounded).

The inspiration from Hellsing is hard to ignore, but I was in love with Integra immediately. She was the first lady character I ever saw wearing men's clothes, with a macho, boxy silhouette, who was in charge of everything. Growing up I hardly made female characters because all the bullshit in life and in stories made me think they couldn't do anything. It's stupid lies and horseshit, but hell. People still think that way, hey? Where do you think they learn it from.

But yeah, a masculine, powerful woman who goes by "Sir"?

Sign me the fuck up.

Then there's The Batter (left); an unstoppable, stone-faced, murderous freak obsessed with purifying the world. His manifesto and off-putting personality directly inspired the Senator. Indeed, there's a line in Chapter 8 that references this. Quigs was mostly visual inspo. I love his platinum hair, razor sharp jaw, and fashionable glasses. :]

There's also probably a little something in there from Alucard (Hellsing, again), and the general horrors of living in a world controlled by detached wealthy assholes who will stop at nothing to destroy all meaningful human connection and control our lives.

Mary, on the other hand, was inspired by the art of my dear friend Dreorcaul. She has a plethora of powerful masculine lady OCs, but one in particular, the gargantuan General Zafim (below, center) of The Sunless Children, set my heart on fire. I thought, well. I want one, too!

Later down the line, I read Satoru Noda's insane 1800s war manga Golden Kamuy, and though I hate the guy, the sniper Ogata (right) made for a bone-chillingly creepy antagonist.

Lieutenant Tsurumi (left) was the biggest influence on Mary's character otherwise. His fiery passion, competence, brutality, and inappropriate closeness to his soldiers were all traits I gave her. I know you might think his scar is, too, but that has another story.

At work I met a middle aged woman with a delicate scar on her face. It was a faint, pale splash radiating out from her nose. I just, I thought she was so beautiful, and Mary was always meant to be hauntingly gorgeous. I guess she came to mind.

Got tagged by @everythingcounts2007remaster. This looks like so much fun. Describe yourself ONLY with pictures you have. You cannot search or download new pictures.

Wake up, folks! A new Legion romance patch (including platonic relationships, too!) just dropped for Mass Effect 2!

An author named jasp on AO3 (big kudos to you! <3) released an interactive fanfic allowing you to finally get into a relationship with Legion. It's not only wonderfully written, it also has the trademark ME dialogue wheel and even the Normandy AI core engine noise in the background!

It really felt like talking with Legion again, which is a real treat. Finally, after the painful ordeals of ME3, my depression has been cured, my broken heart has been mended, and my soul has been restored.

Also I'm gonna tag @everythingcounts2007remaster and @menacingmetal since I know both of you are Legion lovers (hope you don't mind ^^)

@everythingcounts2007remaster you do NOT get to leave this in the tags!!!!

so Tron is a lot more uhhh acrobatic in Legacy than 82, and yeah, you could say it's because the movies are 30 years apart and action standards have changed

but no no no

I am convinced the second Flynn rezzed that poor program onto his Grid, he took that disc and went to settings and cranked "flippies and kicks" all the way up and "murdery feelings" all the way down

[proto-actual]

(I stole this from @everythingcounts2007remaster, you should go look at her art because it's good)

still working on the stuff currently in my inbox but an abundance of prompts leads to more inspiration!

drop a Tron character and a slice of the wheel into the ask box and I'll make an attempt at a ficlet :-)
